    What? That's got to be the longest sentence in the world. I don't even remember what I was going to say now.

    Well, I don't know the whole story and I never will but honestly, you don't sound mentally stable.

    Buying babies toys and spoiling them isn't enough and I don't know enough about your parenting skills to tell you whether or not you're a good Mom and no, thinking you're a good Mom and "trying your best" isn't enough to qualify. If caring was enough, then our foster care systems wouldn't be so loaded down and child abuse wouldn't be so common. Most parents care about their children, but they don't care enough about themselves and that's the problem. You can't care for a child unless you are caring your yourself!

    You need to get mental help. You need to get yourself together. Honey, if you can't take care of yourself, what makes you think you can take care of a baby? You are not stable, you probably don't have a job and even if you do, with the mental state you're at, you couldn't convince me, at this point, that you are mentally stable enough and stable enough in your life to be able to raise a baby. They're not dogs or cats, they're human beings and I'm sure you've probably figured this out the hard way by now.

    Stop fighting for a while. Being in the mental state you're in will NOT help you and it will NOT CONVINCE ANYONE that you're IN ANY WAY READY to raise a baby. You need to relax, you need to get off the computer, go to bed, wake up, go to work, go to school, clean your house, whatever you're doing, clear your head and get mental help.

    I'm not interested in knowing the personal details of your life because I know what I am saying is right and true, despite any personal details you need to focus on YOUR SANITY before you can even THINK ABOUT trying to help your child. If he's being fed and cared for, then leave him at that and work on yourself. Otherwise, that baby will stay gone and you'll stay MISERABLE.

    If you can't provide a stable life for yourself, then you can't provide one for your baby and that's what your baby needs. Do what's best for yourself and do what's best for your baby, otherwise, you can't consider yourself fit to raise him. I know it sounds horrible and harsh of me, but you need to work on your life before you can take the kind of responsibility you need to for another innocent life.

        There was no disrespect meant, you chose to take it that way. Don't take this the wrong way but you need to work on your typing skills. I can not understand what your saying, I can only make out small bits and pieces.

        You're the one telling us you haven't slept and that you're flipping shit. I've taken parenting classes too, I have a place to live as well, but those things don't mean that I would make a good parents and they don't mean the same for you either. You really need to calm down and try to figure yourself out.

          If you did parenting classes you would have to be a parent to get in and you would have to do them a certain amount of time so your a total wanna be liar so take your jelousy some where else

    It is NOT normal for your mother to take your child away from you. If she threw you out at 15 then you should have never spoke to her in the first place. If she threw you out how do you know that she won't do the same to your child. For the well being for your child fight for him with all that you have.

      I've been told to get a discharge from court order which allows me my child back as I've got everything sorted they want me to do and then have a social worker check up/fone me to see how I'm coping for 6 month's then don't have them anymore and I'm waiting for next family member's to get thrown out

    I just realized that there are no periods or commas in your post.

    Anyway, I don't know the full story but from what I've read, none of this is normal. Did something happen to make your mother want to do this or has she always been this crazy? Have you consulted a lawyer or tried to get a restraining order? What were the reasons that your child was taken away?

    Yes I'd say it's normal some mothers are just fucked up, but I don't know in your case because you didn't explain why she's trying?

    No it's not normal.

    No parent that really wants their child should be seperated from them.

      I will disregard the ignorance that is that username, and say this, like coldhearted1 what is the full story behind this? Your mom wouldn't be able to just call social services and say take him away and they comply. What was the reason they gave for taking him? I believe I can help you get your child back immediately but I'm not sure what exactly happened. You will need to ensure that you have a clean place for him to live that is a permanent residence with you and be able to prove that you can feed him and is capable of keeping him safe. No one and this is VERY important NO ONE in the residence can have a criminal record of any sort like sexual abuse or drugand alcohol charges. This story is missing key parts. I will say this foster care isn't the best place for any child to grow up. Also, did your sister know her husband was a pedophile, just curious? She sounds like she is very young herself.
